S-AIS: Definitions & Advantages
Discover Satellite AIS (S-AIS) and its numerous advantages, which revolutionize maritime monitoring with global coverage and reliable data. Explore how Kinéis' technology overcomes the limitations of terrestrial AIS to enhance safety at sea.
Range and limitations
of traditional AIS
Traditional AIS data is received by ships and shore stations, limiting reception to areas close to the coast and the most frequented shipping routes. As a result, vast areas remain unmonitored. The range of the AIS signal depends on the height of the antenna: approximately 37 km for ship-to-ship communications and 50 to 100 km for shore stations.
Vulnerabilities of
the AIS system
AIS is vulnerable to spoofing, a technique that sends fraudulent signals to deceive authorities and obscure tracking. This flaw compromises the reliability of the transmitted information, posing significant risks to maritime safety. Kinéis, through its satellite technology, enables the detection of suspicious behaviors and accurately calculates the positions of vessels.
The challenges of traditional maritime surveillance
Although AIS provides information on the location and speed of vessels, it does not detect other potential threats, such as illegal activities or pollution. Comprehensive maritime surveillance therefore requires complementary systems.
The Kinéis S-AIS Solutions
S-AIS addresses these challenges by using satellites to capture and transmit ais data, providing global coverage, including in the most remote areas, far beyond the reach of shore stations.
